If you want to make client contact easier, it’s necessary to proactively build up a content base to reflect credibility. By putting out consistent, valuable content, you’re giving the prospect something that will grant you permission to get in touch with them. It’s also important to work on your consistency in business and always being prepared so you have the confidence that will reflect in your prospecting.
